  1. During my summer vacation I stayed in SIlverton/Ouray for a couple weeks this past August and got to enjoy your music both in the Grand Saloon and in the steakhouse in Ouray. Very pleasant experience both times! You brought smiles on my face and brought back good memories.
    I like both of your CDs, good selection of tunes. Thank you, Lacey!
